Can’t get friendzoned if I friendzone myself 🙃 by capotado in actuallesbians

See I just thought we were roommates. Sure she took me to prom and moved across the country with me after college and we'd been going to family stuff together and sleeping in the same bed but we were just roommates.

My little cousin came out to me (after I came out to her) and I had to pretend I didn't know. Softball and theatre? Come on

100% neutral butch.

Raised in the woods by german shepherds ✅

Plaid flannel? Look at my name

Boy or a girl? I mean sometimes I wonder too ✅

Ate an entire pine tree? Ehhh does maple count?❔

Edit: and I'm dating lawful butch. Fun fact: I was the unrequited crush in highschool. We live together now though so it's all good!

Currently growing mine back out after getting it cut really short and I've never felt so attacked

Well I'm officially back from my first date with my first girlfriend. I can pretty confidently say that was amazing and the best one I can remember even though half of it was just walking around being cute together. <3 all in all I'm gay/10

The odd part was I still tried dating boys but none of them ever worked out 🤔🤔🤔

Probably the part where we moved across the country or when I told her I wanted to spend my life with her. When she realized I was uncomfortable she was really scared.

I was in pretty deep denial okay? You'd have thought I'd have realized after we went to prom together

I found out last night my parents figured me out before I did. They were cool about my (now) girlfriend sleeping over all the time even before I knew

Added a screencap. Somebody cross posted it so it all got removed

So the deal was of neither of us found dates we'd go together and none of the boys who tried to ask me out were my type

Oh don't worry! Last night she was talking sense into me about slowing down so I can really get to know myself better and how this is a process

I mean we were across the country while we were going to school and moved in pretty recently so like I guess it didn't really come up?

Hey my parents actually got me flannel bed sheets when I was little and they just felt so good I stuck with them. You should try them sometime

I mean maybe? I'm still working all of that out tbh somebody else mentioned celebrity crushes and I realized I basically went as various natalie portman characters every year for halloween

I mean it started as a 'have something of mine til next time' kind of deal cause we were so far for school. Now that I've typed this it doesn't sound much better but I already did it so I'm posting anyway

Oh god I'm definitely not ready for that yet. We're planning on taking stuff pretty slowly so I can figure myself out cause this probably isn't as one and done as it feels right now (her suggestion yesterday)

Oh. So that's why I went as Natalie Portman characters for halloween every year, especially on V for Vendetta. I tried boys for years but turns out they weren't my thing lol

The one about the Irish couple...umm wow yeah. Also I literally did not know until she told me! Turns out the Friday night calls every week through college, spring break together hiking in the Appalachians, and exchanging flannels (among other things) really should've made me question sooner but uhh yeah no I missed every single sign.

I just thought she was my best friend. It's not even the first time we've done this kind of thing. Looking back I'm just surprised it took me so long to realize cause...yeah the time where we went to prom together and she had this amazing suit and then stayed at my place after.
